Hilarious thing I saw on PTI (Cam Cameron conference)...

[Kdo5]

They just discussed the Fish passing on Quinn and taking Ginn well they show Cam Cameron at the microphone and whenever he tries to talk the Fish fans start chanting "BRADY BRADY BRADY!". I love the fact that the Dolphins fans are so enfuriated.

 

[BelichickFan]

It was great, then Cameron said "thank you for your support".

 

[zippo59]

Haha, he better pray Quinn turns out to be a bust or he will be eating sh!t for years.

Was that the press conference where he was essentially explaining that they used the 9th overall pick in the draft on Ginn becuase he is a potentially great PR?

With a great family. Don't forget about the great family.

If his family can block or play quarterback then the Fins might actually be OK.

Yeah, that one. Hey, anyone would pass over a franchise QB for a punt returner, wouldn't they?

It appears that Rick Spielman and Dave Wannstadt have returned, wearing Mueller and Cameron body suits.

Cam has some balls, cause it was brutal out there. I couldn't believe the first time he came out he never mentioned Ginn as a receiver, but as a punt returner...it was later on that he started talking about him as a receiver. The whole "i've known his family for years" line was amazing....are you saying you picked him cause you know his family?

Fin fans haven't looked too good lately!

At #9. Do you know how much they are going to have to pay this kid to sign him? Poor route runner. Questionable hands. He's Bethel Johnson.

And a ringing endorsement from Wayne Huizenga. When asked if Ginn was the right choice, he answered with three words: "It better be."

This is why, IMO, Cam is a career assistant. I think he is a great addition to any staff, just as long as he's not the HC.

But don't forget, his family has to eat!

Here's the video if you haven't seen it:

"He's gonna be a great punt returner for us." Wow...

From the Dolphins' website we find the secret to Cam's success in Miami:

Randy Mueller, now entering his second season as the Dolphins’ General Manager, was named to the post on June 6, 2005, bringing with him 19 years of experience in the NFL.

Prior to joining the Dolphins, Mueller’s most recent NFL stint was when he spent two seasons (2000-01) as General Manager of Football Operations with the New Orleans Saints. In Mueller’s two years overseeing the football operations of that club, the Saints posted a composite regular season record of 17-15, and in his first year there, captured the NFC West title with a record of 10-6 and claimed the franchise’s lone playoff win. For that performance, he was named the Sporting News NFL Executive of the Year in 2000.

Before joining the Saints, Mueller spent the previous 17 years with the Seattle Seahawks. He first went to Seattle in 1983 as an assistant in pro personnel and was elevated to Pro Personnel Director in 1990. In 1995, he was named Vice President/Football Operations and held that post until joining the Saints. From 2002 until being hired by Miami, Mueller served as an NFL analyst for ESPN.

Cam doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in his own right, but the poor guy took one for the GM in front of that fan base.

I think Mueller is a decent GM, but Cameron was a miserable failure as a head coach the first time. He strikes me as possibly the worst coach currently in the NFL other than Mike Tice and Norv Turner, and maybe throw Tom Coughlin into that mix. I'm not going to bag on Kiffin yet because Hillary Duff thinks he's cute.

EDIT: How in the world did I forget Herm Edwards?
